Production at Brampton Manufacturing Hub to
commence immediately
TORONTO, Nov. 18, 2019 /CNW/ - Pure Global Cannabis Inc.
(TSX.V:PURE; OTC: PRCNF) (the "Company" or "Pure
Global" or "Pure"), an integrated growth-oriented
cannabis bulk extracts and consumer products manufacturing company,
operating through its wholly-owned subsidiary PureSinse Inc., a
Health Canada Licensed Producer under the Cannabis Act, is very
pleased to announce that it has received approvals from Health
Canada to amend its existing license to add manufacturing
capabilities via phase 2 of its already licensed facility in
Brampton. Having completed their
facility in the spring, the Company can begin cultivation and
extraction immediately now that all approvals have been granted.
This is a transformational event for the Company as it enables its
own production as opposed to previously being dependent on
wholesale purchases for its inventory hence significantly expanding
its sales and margin potential.
Pure Global's facility was designed and built to exceed
regulatory standards. This approval enables the addition of a
10,000 square foot EU-GMP grade manufacturing space, comprising 12
rooms that will be used for cultivation, processing, and
extraction, to the Company's already licensed site.
With these Health Canada approvals, The Company can
immediately:
- commence using its 6 tons CO2 extraction system towards
enabling bulk cannabis extract and distillate sales
- commence multi-layer and vertical cultivation towards 50-100 kg
per month capacity, with the first harvest expected in Q1 2020
- commence final testing of proprietary vertical growing system
for phase 3 scaled deployment
- continue installation of targeted 100+ tons of biomass
extraction systems for CBD isolate manufacturing for Q1 2020
readiness
- continue installation of scaled processing and packaging for
vape pens, topicals, dried flower, oils, tinctures, and edibles, to
add to the current capacity already in place.
Pure Global aims to become a leader in bulk cannabinoid and
infused product manufacturing in Canada and globally. With the high margins
this sector is experiencing, the Company is well positioned to take
advantage of the growing demand. Along with leveraging its advanced
manufacturing capabilities for white or private label services, the
Company is also introducing its own branded products in targeted
legal adult and health & beauty consumer segments including
PureSinse® Wellness, Paper&Weed Pre-rolls, Kumo Edibles, Galaxy
Premium Cannabis, and The Great Canadian Hemp Co®.
Receiving these cultivation and processing approvals enables the
Company to begin bulk distillate sales and offering
co-manufacturing services through its recently launched B2B brand,
PureCanna Solutions. The Company is currently installing large
scale biomass extraction equipment, with CO2 extraction
capabilities already in place. PureCanna is poised to begin the
sales of bulk concentrates, branded and white-label medical,
recreational and wellness products as well as co-manufacturing and
tolling services almost immediately.
Pure Global CEO & President, Malay Panchal said, "Receiving
our phase 2 approvals from Health Canada is a significant
achievement as it enables us to commence our own cultivation and
extraction for our branded and B2B sales. We have worked tirelessly
to prepare our team, facility, set up distribution channels, and
scale our partnerships in Canada
and globally for this moment. We are building to become a truly
global leader and have positioned ourselves to make huge strides in
the coming quarters. These efforts will help us create significant
value for our shareholders, and we are very excited to be able to
significantly enhance our revenue and margin generating potential
with this approval."
